When publishers employed subs on a grander scale, Kate was a regular on the day-shift subbing circuit for business magazines, and has worked for all the major magazine houses and for a wide variety of publications. Now she offers those skills remotely from our office.
She is experienced in subbing, proof-reading, designing and laying out pages, passing for print and acting as chief sub-editor or production editor. She has dealt with all kinds of contributors, from respected journalists to well-meaning amateurs or industry experts.
